What would it take to install a engine that was in an automatic car into a car with a stick? Any real issues? Just part swapping? Thanks

duh what?

try and make more sense.. then you will get more responses!!

You want to take a engine from a autotranny equipped car and put it into a manual tranny equipped car?
EASY, just take the old motor out, put the new motor in, hook everything that was on the old motor onto the new motor (basically, some things don't need to be switched but that is the general idea)

if you mean converting a car from auto to manual or manual to auto.. whole nother can of worms.

i think he means taking an engine that was in an auto, and putting it into a car with a manual tranny...
This swap is very easy.

on a automatic transmission there is a presspure plate that you need to take of and put the flywheel from the manual transmision. that is the only thing you need to swap, and when you do it dont use the bolts from the automatic pressure plate to bolt on the manual flywheel...they are to short.


here goes a pic i took during my swap, hope this helps.

Thanks I thought I was clear enough? Just wanted to be sure it was a basic swap. No wireing issues just the fly wheel swap over that's great. Thanks again.
